Mojo Rocksteady Beat / Various - Mojo Rocksteady Beat / Various - Music CD

2008 compilation of classic recordings from the funkiest group in the history of Reggae! The Sound Dimension have recorded some of the most important songs in Reggae music; songs that have become the 'foundation' of Reggae music, endlessly versioned and re-versioned by Jamaican artists since the time they were first recorded to the present day. As the in-house band at Studio One in the late '60s, the Sound Dimension played alongside everyone from the Heptones, Alton Ellis, Ken Boothe, Marcia Griffiths and more. Similar to their US counterparts the Funk Brothers at Motown and Booker T and the MGs at Stax, the Sound Dimension recorded on a daily basis incredibly catchy and funky tunes and matched by a seamless musicality. Featuring musicians of the caliber of Ernest Ranglin, Jackie Mittoo, Eric Frater, Leroy Sibbles, Don Drummond Jnr, Deadley Headley and more. The Sound Dimension existed from around 1967-70 and all the recordings featured here were originally released during this period. 18 tracks.
